from the depths of the academic vortex

I don’t know about you, but for me nothing eases the sting of term papers, bibliographies, and external examiner nominations than this comic strip. Calvin and Hobbes meets Dorothy Parker? Al Burian meets Judith Butler? Samuel Beckett meets Le Tigre? All of the above get together for a slumber party where they start a Ramones cover band and read The Babysitters Club to each other? Who cares, this stuff is genius.
